"A Field Trip to Remember", but there is no actual image attached in this message. However, I can help you solve the problem based on the text you've provided.
Let me analyze and solve the problem step by step:
---
Problem Summary:
-
Context: A field trip to the zoo.
-
Group: 20 students and 3 teachers (total of 23 people).
-
Costs:
- Admission: $10 per person.
- Lunch: $5 per person.
- Transportation: $200 total for the group.
-
Question: How much money does each student need to contribute?
---
Step-by-Step Solution:
####
1. Calculate Total Cost
We need to find the total cost for the entire group.
#####
Admission Cost
- 23 people × $10 =
$230
#####
Lunch Cost
- 23 people × $5 =
$115
#####
Transportation Cost
- Given as
$200
#####
Total Cost
$$
\text{Total} = \text{Admission} + \text{Lunch} + \text{Transportation}
$$
$$
= 230 + 115 + 200 = \$545
$$
---
####
2. Determine Who Pays
The problem states: *"The school will pay for the transportation, but the students will have to cover the rest."*
So:
-
Transportation ($200) → Paid by the school.
-
Admission and lunch ($230 + $115 = $345) → Paid by the students.
>
✔ So only
$345 needs to be covered by the
students.
---
####
3. Divide the Cost Among Students
There are
20 students sharing the $345.
$$
\text{Each student pays} = \frac{345}{20} = 17.25
$$
---
✔ Final Answer:
Each student needs to contribute
$17.25.
---
Explanation:
- The total cost of admission and lunch is $345.
- Since transportation is covered by the school, students only pay for admission and lunch.
- Dividing $345 among 20 students gives $17.25 per student.
